BA Business Management with Supply Chain
About this course
Business management with supply chain is a degree that pairs broad commercial understanding with one of the most operationally critical disciplines in modern business. Supply chain management concerns everything that happens between a raw material and a customer: sourcing, procurement, logistics, warehousing, transportation, inventory management, and the network design decisions that determine how goods flow efficiently and reliably through complex global systems. As global consumer demand has become more intricate and supply chain disruptions have revealed how fragile poorly designed systems can be, expertise in supply chain management has become genuinely scarce and valuable. The three-year full-time Business Management with Supply Chain programme at Keele University combines essential business acumen in areas such as marketing, finance, and organisational behaviour with supply chain management essentials including logistics, warehousing, transportation, and network design. You will develop the critical industry skills needed to unlock career opportunities in the sector, applying both the commercial and the operational frameworks that effective supply chain management demands. The programme includes a sandwich year, a year abroad, and work placement options, giving you structured opportunities to gain substantial professional and international experience before you graduate. These placements are particularly valuable in supply chain, where practical knowledge of how logistics operations and global procurement work in practice is expected by employers. With a typical entry tariff of 104 points, the programme is accessible and practically focused. Graduates pursue careers in supply chain and logistics management, procurement, operations, distribution, retail management, and consulting roles that span the full range of industries that depend on effective supply chains. Many also go on to postgraduate study in supply chain management, operations, or logistics.
